About This Book

The go-to guide to the stars for beginners and experts alike.

With clear, readable text, easy-to-follow diagrams, and a sprinkling of H. A. Rey's irrepressible humor, The Stars: A New Way to See Them gives sparkle to the constellations and makes the mechanics of the universe intelligible to even the novice astronomer.

This updated version of the classic text includes revised facts and figures for planets and new scientific details,

This is a clear, vivid astronomy reference book. As Learning Through Literature puts it: "The Stars: A New Way to See Them is a great introduction to astronomy. It's readable and easy to understand. But don't assume it's light on details. Not a bit! This reference book has 100+ pages packed with information. It's filled with illustrations of the constellations, our solar system, and the universe. You could easily use it as a spine for an astronomy study or as a reference throughout the year when questions come up."
